Oliver's Profile

Experience Summary

I'm extremely well travelled having spent time, travelling, living and working in 40 countries across the world. I count communications as one of my biggest talents, with a natural talent for people skills and interaction. After spending six months cold calling, I learnt how to communicate and instantly build trust with people from all social backgrounds and managed a high success rate in selling the product to them. I am a great team player and have good experience in managing groups and customer services. View my contact details, availability, and stats.
